Alaei Busts Shack-Harris in a Monster Pot

Brandon Shack-Harris bet 40,000 on a board, and there was a call before Daniel Alaei raised to 235,000 in the cutoff, and Shack-Harris announced, "Pot," moving his last 710,000 in the middle. The third player folded and Alaei started to tank.

"I'm supposed to make the final table of this every year, just keep that in mind." Shack-Harris told Alaei with a grin.

"I don't think I can lay this down," Alaei replied. Shack-Harris responded with, "Good luck to us."

Alaei tanked a bit longer, then made the call, leaving himself just 100,000 behind.
